Thank you for your interest! Registration for this course is now closed. Please email info@anatomytrains.com with any questions.
Please join us for this unique Dissection Livestream event, Deep Dive into the Joints, with Anatomy Trains author Tom Myers, and Master Dissector Todd Garcia.
Our dissections are done live, on donors who have not been ‘fixed’ with chemicals. Therefore the colors and movement of the structures we will see on this voyage of discovery are as natural and lifelike as possible.
This course will be provided over zoom webinar with multiple camera views, live chat and Q&A. Recordings will be provided via password protected streaming access for 5 days. This special dissection livestream format allows us to go more deeply into the relationships and applications to multiple manual and movement modalities, from athletic training to trauma resolution to osteopathy.
Course schedule:
Sunday, December 4, 2022
10:00 AM – 1:00 PM EST
Concepts
- Joints ensemble: ‘the organ system of movement
• Three types of joints and their properties- Terminology twists: Van der Wal’s ‘Dynaments’ and Myers’ ‘Teno-cartilaginous’ joints
- Shifts in skin and superficial fascial layers near the joint
- Both Sides Now: Musculo-tendinous support for joint stability
- Joint capsules, surfaces, synovia, and internal joint architecture
- Diverse practice applications and Anatomy Trains continuities
(Please note: Each module contains our “wish list” of structures, and we generally score over 90%). Our journey is always subject to the individual particulars of the donor, which can also contribute to our understanding of degenerative disease.)
